Steven Raichlen

Did you know?

Steve, who defeated Iron Chef Roksbura Michiba on Japanese television, explains it's important to lubricate the grill with oil. Never spray oil directly onto a lit grill, he says, or you will get "Vesuvian flare-ups." The oil helps prevent sticking and gives you killer grill marks.

Steven Raichlen is many things—author, journalist, novelist, teacher, and TV host—but he may be best known as the man who reinvented barbecue. Raichlen wrote the multi-award-winning, best-selling Barbecue Bible cookbook series (4 million copies in print in 10 languages). His Primal Grill and Barbecue University television shows on PBS have helped people all over the world ascend the ladder of grilling enlightenment.Currently he is filming the next season of the program.

 

Raichlen’s obsession with live fire cooking began with The Barbecue Bible and continued with  the IACP Award-winning How to Grill,  hailed by the New York Times as “astute, approachable, and eminently appealing.”

BBQ USA  won a 2004 James Beard Award and his book, Raichlen on Ribs,  celebrates ribs in all their global glory. He recently completed Planet Barbecue, which will be released in 2010.

Raichlen’s 28 books include Barbecue Bible Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades; Beer Can Chicken; Miami Spice and the James Beard Award-winning Healthy Latin Cooking. In all, Raichlen has won five James Beard Awards and three IACP awards, and his books have been translated into 12 languages, including French, Russian, and Japanese. He recently completed his first novel.

Raichlen’s has appeared on virtually every major national TV show, from The Today Show, Good Morning American, and CNN to Oprah, The View, and Regis and Kelly. In 2000, Raichlen created Barbecue University, a cooking school hailed by the Food Network as the “#1 Barbecue Experience in the U.S.”  Recent sessions took  place at the  Broadmoor resort in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Steve also created the Best of Barbecue line of grilling accessories, manufactured by the Companion Group.  

Steve lives with his wife, Barbara, in Miami, Florida. Visit him at
